An episode on the fragrance journey
by ScentNebula | Perfume Discussions

Why my perfectly fine photos being rejected
by Mitchcraft | Parfumo Community
...a long way between the staff and users of a website.It is also great to hear that you support @Lempi with her idea of the suggestion to implement a system that helps people understand why their photos are rejected. It will go a long way to help people understand how to go about things in the future.I...

Why my perfectly fine photos being rejected
by Lempi | Parfumo Community
...to all users about the exact reasons for rejection would take too much time and resources, so that's why I was thinking that the numbering system I suggested would probably be helpful in the future. And I understand that probably they missed that the photos I submitted were different because...

Why my perfectly fine photos being rejected
by Mitchcraft | Parfumo Community
...know i have not done any photos or art for a while but the numbering system sounds like a great idea. It would surely help both people on the sorting team and the users. If we know what we are doing wrong and can then avoid... packages or just to be in the artistry team. It's a shame the OP of this topic seems to have left, i did try to help him and i think the numbering system would help by giving an answer to allow artists to know "OK I have done that wrong, now i will go try to correct it" and hopefully then both Parfumo... Parfumo gets some new cool photos for fragrances that maybe don't have any yet and artists get their work shown to people :) .I think the numbering system Lempi suggested sounds like a good idea. I wish we had thought of something similar back when i was running those sites, I don't know if @DonVanVliet...

Why my perfectly fine photos being rejected
by Lempi | Parfumo Community
...great to hear that I'm not the only one with so much confusion about Parfumo photo system... I already wrote about it here as I spotted that the OP had deleted his account and thought that this thread will be deleted. I made a... this thread will be deleted. I made a suggestion, that for saving everybody's time and effort and to increase transparency, Parfumo could have a system that rules are numbered and every time when the photo is rejected, the user will get an automatic notification which rule the photo broke so the user...

by Arcenciel | Parfumo Community
...I used "dislike" much more sparingly, only for fragrances I really didn't like at all.No matter which system we use, people will always have different ideas of a what a rating means. Therefore I find reviews + statements more helpful than ratings anyways... obvious. Maybe as an option to chose from, just like you can hide the note pictures.I agree that reviews and statements are more helpful than rating systems. Although I like that we rate the overall as well as bottle, longevity, etc. That's all very helpful. A fragrance may not be great but may have a...
